Women's Formal Dinner Attire

Dinner Parties

Getting ready for a dinner party is really confusing and stressful with a lot of different types of dinner parties out there, on top of that deciding on what to were is some thing women have trouble on deciding.

I am not Judging anyone out there.

So i am going to go through what kind of dress is expected at a party so  that will make the stress of getting ready for a Formal dinner party a little easier.

Source: White Tie Dress

ok lets get started with:

White Tie:

Dressing for white tie events you have to be careful as they are the relatively strict attire requirements. So when attending one of these events you would want to dress appropriately.

For this Event you should were:

• Formal Evening were / Full-Skirted ball gown
• Jewelry - ( lots of it, but not too much)
• Fur wrap
• Long White Gloves 

Some hosts wont mind if u don't were the fur wrap or long white gloves, but its always best to make sure before making a decision.

Black Tie Mandatory:

Black tie events are less formal but there are many different kinds of black Tie events and ill go over some not all,so it is very important that you read the invitation to make sure that you have the correct attire to the event

For a Formal Black Tie event you should were:

• Floor length Gown
• Dark and elegant color of your dress
• Carry a purse or clutch
• Sparklier jewelry
• Undergarments should not be visible
• Evening Shoes

Since Black tie events are normally held at night so if it's chilly were a traditional overcoat

Black Tie Creative:

Black tie creative basically means that the event is formal but you are allowed to be a little more flexible and flashier with your choice of clothing. So for this 1 you still will have to follow the main points from the Black Tie Mandatory but instead of the Dark elegent color for your dress you will be able to choose your own color. The jewelry you choose to were can be unique for example you can go to the event wearing a tiara.

Cocktail Events:

A cocktail party is traditionally  a pre-dinner party, which means you should be wearing a  tasteful short evening dress. When looking for a Cocktail dress should look for:

• Hemlines are short or slightly above the knee

you can also were pants, which in case you will have to

• Long dressy pants
• Silk blouse 
• if need be a cashmere sweater 

The dresses can be strapless and flashy to a more conservative black dress.

Lounge:

It will be very rare that you are invited to a lounge event, but in the off chance you are invited to a lounge event you should know that a lounge event has the same dress code as a cocktail events.

Ok now that i have gone through what you should be wearing all you have to do is decide on a dress and do your make up and you will be ready.
